Wagga tips and results

Our price $3.20 · SP $1.65 · Pierre Boudvillain

The gear choices suggest a professional approach from trainer Danny Beasley, with pre-race ear muffs indicating good temperament management. With a very fast tempo expected, barrier 6 provides tactical options, and the track's leader advantage should benefit if showing early speed.

Our price $4.00 · SP $20.00 · Nick Heywood

His most recent effort was a solid 3rd at Queanbeyan 11 days ago, showing he's race-fit. Has experience at Wagga with 1 placing from 2 starts. The wide barrier is a concern, but with a very fast tempo expected, his closing style could be suited if he can find cover early.

Our price $5.50 · SP $7.00 · Shaun Guymer

This should allow jockey Shaun Guymer to position him prominently in a race where leaders have an advantage. The lack of form is the main concern, but the positional advantage may offset this.

Our price $5.00 · SP $6.00 · John Kissick

Hot Toddy brings strong credentials as a first-up runner with a solid record at Wagga (9:0-2-1). While yet to break through for a win, his consistent placings and first-up record (5:0-1-1) make him a genuine threat.

Our price $7.00 · SP $26.00 · Jack Martin

Now second-up from a spell with a potentially beneficial gear change (blinkers off, visors on), he should be ready to peak.

Our price $6.00 · SP $7.00 · Jeff Penza

With Jeff Penza aboard from a good barrier, she should get an ideal run on speed. The step up to 1300m looks suitable based on her finishing efforts.

Our price $15.00 · SP $71.00 · Caine Stuart

Her 6th last start at this track was solid, and the 39-day freshen up could see her improve.

Our price $3.80 · SP $4.40 · Pierre Boudvillain

Super Nic brings the strongest recent form, finishing a close second at this track last start over 1400m. The step up to 1600m is the query, but his racing pattern suggests he'll handle it, and the fast tempo should suit his finishing style.

Our price $5.50 · SP $5.50 · Dale Cole

Won impressively two starts back before a disappointing run last time. The addition of blinkers for the first time could be the key to improvement, and the significant weight advantage (52.5kg) is a major plus. Drawn well in barrier 3 and represents strong each-way value.

Our price $6.50 · SP $7.50 · Josh Richards

Wagunda comes off an impressive last-start win at this track and brings a strong Wagga record (3:2-0-0). With just 55kg and drawn well in barrier 5, he should get every chance. His improving form line suggests he's ready to be competitive despite the slight class rise.

Our price $8.00 · SP $14.00 · Rebecca Bronett Prag

While the class rise is a concern, her recent form suggests she can be competitive at this level.

Our price $9.00 · SP $19.00 · Rebecca Bronett Prag

While her win strike rate is modest, she's a consistent performer with 2 wins, 2 seconds and 6 thirds from 28 starts. Her recent 3rd in Class 2 company at Gundagai was strong, and she has previous experience at Wagga. The fast tempo should suit her backmarker style.

Our price $6.00 · SP $3.50 · Cory Parish

Durham Legacy is a lightly raced 3YO with upside potential. Importantly, he's second-up today with a perfect second-up record of 1 win from 1 start. The addition of tongue tie is interesting and may help his breathing. While inexperienced, he has natural speed and should be able to take up a good position from barrier 7.

Our price $10.00 · SP $26.00 · Milos Bunjevac

She's coming off a maiden win on a soft track at Echuca and draws perfectly in barrier 4.

Our price $2.20 · SP $2.50 · Jeff Penza

Perfectly drawn in barrier 1 to utilize her early speed, she'll appreciate the minimum weight and should get every chance from an on-pace position despite the class rise. Her raw ability and tactical advantage make her the standout.

Our price $7.00 · SP $6.00 · Cory Parish

Shelly's Legacy brings a perfect record at this distance (1-1-1 from 3 starts) and is a lightly-raced improver with upside. The 4yo gelding has been racing consistently with a recent placing at Echuca and should appreciate the fast tempo predicted.
